Saying goodbye to the summer... Recently I painted this en plein air in Bornholm and it fits the weekly daily paintworks contest "grass".
The far view could be seen from a slightly higher garden point, and because another tree was cut down... that's where I sat down to enjoy / paint the scenery.
While painting I looked closely at the shadow of the right tree on the grass, but painted it not quite accordingly, more dark green was no option for my eye... that's why I can now sometimes imagine to change the format to a wide panorama view.

Fascinated by yellow lichen or alga growing on rocks at the Bornholm coast,

I expressed it freely in this small painting.

Many fisher houses with chimneys for smoking fish in Bornholm have been replaced by a few modern manufacturies - this plain air painting includes a hint towards that development. As one can see the square painting on thick cotton canvas needs a board to be mounted on, or a frame. Until then sending it carefully rolled up remains an option.
Now it goes up for auction

I was admiring this beautiful old anchor by drawing it ala plein air with watercolor pencils first and then dissolving them with ocean water. This anchor found a new permanent place in the small harbour of Gudhjem on the Danish island Bornholm, where I sat up close to it - now it's radiating by any weather like a sculpture...

Diesen schönen alten Anker würdigte ich, indem ich ihn vorort mit Aquarellstiften zeichnete und sie danach mit Seewasser auflöste.  Er hat einen neuen Standort in dem kleinen Hafen von Gudhjem auf der dänsichen Insel Bornholm gefunden, wo ich nah dran sitzen konnte -  nun strahlt er bei jedem Wetter wie eine Skulptur...
